From Anthony McCartney, Davis party HQ:
Florida State Senator Les Miller just came into the press room and said Davis’ camp is actually encouraged by the early numbers.
“The larger counties are really not in yet,” Miller said. A lot of the figures are absentee ballots, and those sway Republican, he said.
Larger counties such as Hillsborough haven’t come in yet.
He said it could be a long night and that bodes well for Davis.
“This is going to be a real, real close race,” Miller insisted. “The longer the night, the better it is for us.”
Reality check: With roughly half the precincts counted in Hillsborough County, Davis is losing by 10 percentage points. Other precincts that haven’t been counted could go heavily for Davis, but the early returns here clearly aren’t in Davis’ favor.
